Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

During the late 1950s and early 1960s the exotic sounds of Martin Denny pricked up the ears of cold war America. At that time, America was experiencing a craze for neo Polynesian/Hawaiian chic; bamboo bars and Tiki-themed restaurants with grass-skirted waitresses where springing up everywhere. Exotica was the soundtrack for bamboo acolytes. Playing at Hawaii's Shell bar in 1956, Martin Denny pioneered his unique sound: a cocktail of animal calls, exotic instruments, Latin rhythms and esoteric jazz. The music evoked images of garlanded, grass-skirted natives, Hawaiian sunsets, lush rainforests, forbidden Eastern pleasures and the mysteries of the Orient. Denny released 37 albums for Liberty Records, with sales totalling over 4 million copies. In 1957, his first album, Exotica, topped the American charts with the single "Quiet Village" reaching number two. Subsequent releases included Exotica 2 and 3, Forbidden Island, Primitiva, and Hypnotique. This collection draws heavily from Martin Denny's early excursions, demonstrating why he remains the Tribal Elder of Exotica. --F.B.Hawkes

5.0 out of 5 stars exotic sound, Hi-Fi sound, 2005/9/8
とにかくリマスターの音がたいへん優秀で、
Martin Denny の意図したサウンドデザインが良くわかります。
ボリュームがあり滑らかで、丁寧に作られた事の証ですね。
一曲目以外はすべてステレオバージョンを収録。
モノラルの「Quiet Village」で始まり、最後は同曲ステレオで締めくくるセンスと、
Mark Ryden の描く素晴らしいジャケットがコレクションアイテムとして
満点だと思いました。オススメです。
